Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to an adaptive bias bias communication system-adaptive bias circuit. , especially - face to it [previous technology] Our:: reading can be seen 'anywhere, you can find him in two places, scientific and technological progress, at the price, the electronic _ is lighter (four), But provide more (four) big Wei. Part _ is due to the fact that smaller electronic components are readily available, such as transistors, wafer capacitors L, and the improved circuit architecture is also part of the reason for improving the performance of these electronic devices. Amplifiers are almost a key component in every electronic device. The electronic characteristics of the amplifier = _ Chang Guang, such as gain, weave, and miscellaneous (four); its range is also wide - like active filter (activefllter), buffer, analog signal to digital signal (analog-to -digital converter, rf transceiver, etc. At present, most of the amplifiers used in integrated circuits use a transistor or a plurality of transistors to provide signal amplification. In some applications, such as the power amplifier used in the 201107924 RF transceiver, the linear operating range of the transistor that provides the amplification function is important.) In order to achieve the linear operation of the transistor that provides the amplification function. Range, Piezoelectric_Connected to the splicing, such as providing a surface current or bias voltage to provide a transistor that amplifies Wei. As a general practice, the design of the bias current or the bias voltage is to make the electron crystal-micro-heavy operation of the Weiwei the largest, but the current consumption is the least. A technique for increasing the linear operating range of a transistor that provides amplifying Wei is adaptive biasing, unlike biasing a fixed bias current or a bias voltage to provide an amplification function. Peach (Let ^-it) is based on the characteristics of the input signal, such as subtraction, her, frequency adjustment bias current or the size of the cake. The adaptive bias circuit can also be combined with a conventional bias circuit to provide the effect of trimming the bias current or bias voltage. Please refer to FIG. 1.

Tian Pei a Κ: When the power of the input signal received by ι increases, that is, when the power of the emitter of the bias transistor Q2 increases, the bias transistor φ flows out more adaptive bias current to the power amplifier. The base of crystal Q1 is superimposed on the power amplifier transistor ^ operating in the linear range, allowing the power amplification material to operate online The adaptive bias current of the turn depends on the characteristics of the power amplifier || the transistor itself and the matching circuit that is consuming to the power amplifier. In some cases, when the input power increases, the emitter of the bias transistor q2 The available bias current is not suffocating enough to operate the A|| in a linear range, so 'in the above case, it would be necessary to look at the good bias circuit to provide more sensitivity to the input power.
